A brand new Greek-Australian in-flight comedy

Written by Bill Kokkaris with Take Away Theatre & Don Mamouney
Directed by Don Mamouney.
Presented by Take Away Theatre & Sidetrack Performance Group.

Flying to Athens with Parthenon Air is nothing new to frequent-flying businessman Stelios Thanasiou. Playboy, entrepreneur, amateur philosopher and incurable sensualist, this time Stelios is in for one hell of a trip…..and he is not alone.

Stelios, along with a melancholy soccer star, the nauseating taxi-driver, angry young Sophie , the B-grade Air Hostess and others, are all aboard the Parthenon Air flight you'll never forget.

24 hours is a long time to be hurtling through the air with a group of mismatched strangers…and everybody on flight PA052 is on their own special mission to the 'Mothership'…..Greece.

Parthenon Air is a brand new Greek-Australian comedy brought to you by Take Away Theatre (The Taming of the Strigla, To Baraki) and Sidetrack Performance Group, directed by Don Mamouney (The Promised Woman, The Uncle from Australia).

The cast includes Nicholas Papademetriou (Grass Roots, Greek Tragedy), Lina Kastoumis, Adam Hatzimanolis (The Promised Woman The Uncle From Australia), Alex Blias (Home and Away, The Grass is Greener, The Uncle From Australia), Elena Carapetis (Heart Break High) and Magdalena Stamos (The Courtyard of Miracles).

"Can we live our life up in the clouds, cut adrift from all that connects us to place and others. Or do we need some life-lines pulling us in?"
